DK "Coding in Scratch" Workbooks

DK’s Coding in Scratch workbooks give kids a colorful, step-by-step path into programming simple games and animations. Packed with screenshots, checklists, and clear instructions, each project walks learners through building a specific Scratch creation while explaining key ideas like loops, conditionals, and variables. Designed for independent use, the books also work well for tech-shy parents who want a concrete plan to follow without improvising lessons. Families appreciate the bite-sized exercises and the sense of accomplishment that comes from finishing a real, shareable project. The workbooks are inexpensive compared to full online courses and pair nicely with Scratch’s free platform. To cement learning, encourage kids to tweak each project—change characters, add levels—rather than just recreating examples exactly.
